I thought everyone would like to see a video of a Sky Galleons game I ran this past Friday at BARRAGE 2023 convention in Havre de Grace, Maryland USA. It was a real treat that the floor tiles matched my cloths for the various high craggy hills. :-)

The link below takes you the youtube video filmed of my game by one of the locals at BARRAGE. I'm busy running the game but one of the players has nicely narrated the info.

The general game background is Fenians bombing the British legation at Moeris Lacus, only defended by Parhoon Navy ships (no British), but the game does allows me to use my new Prince Arthur Aerial Battery (a British crewed battery with a 6" and four 5" guns!). Those so-called (as the British called them) "Fenian b**tards" won; the last two turns they destroyed the legation. Obviously, there will be severe retribution coming from the Crown!

Enjoy,
Bob

Reminds me I've got a bunch of those painted up around here somewhere (in the smaller size!). grin

Fantastic, thanks for sharing Bob! What a blast to play that scale.

That's phenomenal! It must have been a treat and a joy to play in that space with those huge ships!

That looks like an absolute blast to play!

Very cool! I played these rules with 1/1200 models some years ago and they were a lot of fun.

Very cool. We have played this with 28mm on the table top. Way to small a space.

The floor game is much cooler.
